For 1963 Dodge made a last minute decision to drop the Lancer name in favor of Dart for its newly designed senior compact, which had a wheelbase grown to 111 inches. The longer wheelbase used the A body suspension of the Valiant and the Lancer. The Dart was an instant market success, and 1963 sales were up sharply compared to those of the 1962 Lancer. Engines were a 170 cubic inch slant six as standard and a 225 as an option.
